I apsolutly feel the same way im more than half way threw the beginning process, its very nerve wracking and stressful. ive seen so many doctors as well so far it feels never ending. its def a waiting game. im trying to just think about the end purpose. Good luck hun.

I am right there with you. All the hurry up and wait is killing me. I am so ready for the next chapter to begin.

Omg i had so many tests, I went to so many doctors. While it was unfortunate that I had lost my job I can't imagine having to schedule all those appointments around my working hours. I just kept reminding mysel that every test and every doctor visit was one step closer to the surgery

I went to a psychiatrist, nutritionist, cardiologist, pulmonologist, ekg, chest xray, so many blood tests, hematologist, reumatologist....and probably a couple more I don't remember off the top of my head

yeah isn't this the "easy" way out?

[redvet 39]

Thanks everyone, no, this is definitely not the easy way out, I just want it over and done already. Good luck all.

I've burned through a lot of vacation time already "getting ready". I'm so ready to be on the other side of the surgery, scheduled 11/30/15. I had my last steak and glass of Cab for a while tonight!

It took me 11 months start to surgery. Hang in there

Funny thing is, this is the easiest part of the whole thing.

It will happen before you know it. Then the real work begins.

Good luck to everyone.

part of a very important process for a lifelong commitment. if you feel the process prepping is too much then you will be overwhelmed post op.
